I need to tell you something that might sound a little radical.
The world says the goal is to get out of survival mode. I say the goal is to get strong in it.
I'm Jennifer Roskamp, and if you've been listening to this podcast for any length of time, you know I don't do fluff. I don't hand out checklists and pretend they'll change your life. And I definitely don't believe in the lie that if you just try harder, organize better, or wake up earlier, everything will magically fall into place.
Here's what I do believe: You're not broken. You're not lazy. You're not unmotivated. You're just carrying more than anyone can hold long-term, and you've been telling yourself that surviving it makes you weak.
But what if I told you that survival isn't failure—it's proof of your strength? And what if there was a way to not just endure survival mode, but to become strong in it?
That's what we're talking about today. How to stop waiting for life to calm down and start building strength right where you are. How to become what I call Survival Mode Strong.
